Poverty in India is one of the biggest issue we are facing today. Almost every third poor in the world is Indian. This paper gives insight about the poverty, its types, regional disparity, measures for its removal, and the initiatives taken by the government in this regard. Data collected for this paper is from secondary source. This paper elaborates the reason for the poverty in detail and its corrective measures can be taken. Poverty is a vicious cycle, a famous quote which describes this perfectly is ?you are poor because you are poor?. Chronic poverty is the issue we are dealing with from a long period of time. This paper also explains the parameters on which poverty is defined, what should be included and what not, poverty line, state of people below poverty line and measures to bring them above the poverty line, difference between poverty in urban areas and rural areas.

The relationship between health and poverty is reasonably well known; one can exacerbate and contribute to the other in a vicious cycle.

Rather than fostering security, restrictive measures such as the criminalisation of migration create a vicious cycle of insecurity and irregularity.

Since the 1970s, there have been three challenges to traditional, homogeneous 'national' identities across the Western world: political & socioeconomic inequality; neoliberal globalization; & more diverse, multicultural societies. As in the US & elsewhere in Western Europe, the decline of an old, masculinized national identity has now begun to open a new, dark era for Britain. Ever since the 'war on terror' was added to the mix, 'others' in Britain have been brutally demonized. Muslims, routinely presented as the source of society's ills, are subjected to both symbolic & actual violence. Deep-seated racialized norms amplify the isolation & alienation impeding Muslim integration. Both these 'left-behind' Muslims & white-British groups who perceive themselves as the true nation are under pressure from ongoing geopolitical concerns in the Muslim world, as well as widening divisions at home.

Since the 1970s, there have been three challenges to traditional, homogeneous 'national' identities across the Western world: political and socioeconomic inequality; neoliberal globalisation; and more diverse, multicultural societies. As in the US and elsewhere in Western Europe, the decline of an old, masculinised national identity has now begun to open a new, dark era for Britain. Ever since the 'war on terror' was added to the mix, 'others' in Britain have been brutally demonised. Muslims, routinely presented as the source of society's ills, are subjected to both symbolic and actual violence. Deep-seated and structurally racialised norms amplify the isolation and alienation impeding Muslim integration. Both these 'left-behind' Muslims and white-British groups who perceive themselves as the true nation are under pressure from ongoing geopolitical concerns in the Muslim world, as well as widening divisions at home. Tahir Abbas argues that, in this context, the symbiotic intersections between Islamophobia and radicalisation intensify and expand. His book is a warning of the world that results: a rise in hate crime, the institutionalisation of Islamophobia, and the normalisation of war and conflict.
